    Neil specialty. He will give us all some crock about how it "takes 2 teams" or there weren't any deals out there, but other teams don't seem to be having any troubles.

    Well you'd likely have to combine him with one of our dead salaries which would probably force us to give up our first.

    And even then, we probably aren't finding a needle mover.

    I'm guessing that's prolly it when it comes to players of significance. Last hour of the deadline is usually salary dumps and tax trimmings

    Regardless if the Blazers make any moves, this deadline has been very active compared to years past.

    Or maybe teams just aren't impressed with the players available in the 20s in this draft. :dunno:

    Wow that is a lot IMO for the aging Gasol. That is a win for both teams.

    By the end of next year those moves will have screwed him of the ability to move during three separate mid season trade windows
    And he probably won't have been called on it once. Good move on Neil. He works at a place where he is above any substantial criticism.

    Mirotic makes $12.5 M. Collins makes $3.6 M and Simons $1.8 M. That's a $7 M fail.

    The thing about this year from 2-7 position any these could win playoff series against the other that how close teams are this year.

    NO trades Rodney Hood and a future second to Indiana for Nik Stauskus and Wade Baldwin.

    Claims he made several great trades before the deadline.

    Literally any matchup we'd be likely to get from seeds 3-8

    I think they get out of the first round this year.

    Same as last year. And yet no matter who we play, seems to have been a 'bad match-up'.
